Governor Patterson now says tliat Taft did it. Lieutenant Governor McLeod Endorsed by Home People. On Wednesday afternoon. July 13. an enthusiastic meeting of the citizens of liishIopville and surrounding country was held at Woodward Grove for the purpose of advancing the candidacy of the Hon. Thos. G. McLeod for the office of Governor. The people of Lee county want to show the Democratic voters of this State what thc> think of their home candidate. The following resolution was adopted and a committee of live appointed to place the same before the l>ein(H.Tatic voters of the State at the expose of the meeting: We, the citizens of Bishopville and surrmimiinir territory, the home of the Hon 1 oral lie Thos. G. McLeod, candidate foi Governor, do hereby in meeting assembled, voluntarily and without his knowledge or solicitation, heartily recommend him to the democratic voters of South Carolina, as in every vt'ay competent and capable to (ill the responsible duties of Governor. Hiq ability is unquestioned and unquestionable; his character is irreproachable; his simple word is as binding ao his bond; always true to principle, honor and integrity; his whole life is an unanswerable argument to the faintest whisper against his uprightness of character, his sobriety and his untarnished reputation. Shortly after leaving college, he lost his father, and taking charge of his father's estate, farm and mercantile business, lie managed it with great business judgment and succeeded in paying oft a large indebtedness, at the same time he was a father to his brothers and sister, educating them and today they look up to, love and respect him as a* father. Ho has good judgment and excellent executive ability, his election ran be no mistake and we bespeak for him the support of the democracy of South Carolina. As a representative for two years, as a Senator for four years, lie always stood for those things which were for the best interest of the people, and as Lieutenant Govmv nor for four years, he was absolutely fair and impartial in his rulings and presided with dignity and ability and we iirmly believe tliat ids record there made entitles him to that promotion which ksulways accorded au honest and faithful public servant. Coming Grain Belt Located in South. Cincinnati, August 22:?When Col. William Bruce Leffingwell, the noted traveler and lecturer, delivers his series of illustrated talks on "The South and Its Resources," at the Ohio Valley Exposition, to be held in Cincinnati, he will lay particular stress upon the fact that the South is the coming grain section of the United States. Col. Leffingwell I will show, by figures, photographs and moving pictures, that farmers seeking new agricultural worlds to conquer, need not travel to Canada, there to endure climatic hardships, in order to find a new and productive section on which to expend their labors and their knowledge of farming. According to the researches made by Col IJLefTingwell statistics snow mat umcn <>i the land in the South that heretofore has been devoted to the culture of cotton, and which now is being infested by the dread bolk weevil, can be made even more profitable by the scientific cultivation of wheat corn, oats, barley and other grains am: farm products. In Mississippi, for instance, where there are a number of "Boys Clubs," organizes for the purpose of studying and develop jng scientific rarming, it has been fount that land formerly devoted to the culturt pf cotton, find'whjch, when utilized for tin raising of grain in a desultory way vieldet ?

Other sections of the State arc producing from 25 to 30 bushels of oats and front -} to 50 bushels of wheat to the acre, th< quality of all these grains being equal U the best products of the so-called ,sgraii states." And what is true of Mississippi also it true of other Southern States, as Col LefTingwell will show in statistics am pictures.

" < Mni hiity, Aug1.5, i'.tio. i The Editor of the Press ami Uaiiner: Deai- Sir:? There is only one question of any size 1 hat confronts tlieyood people of tliiV region: that is the question of land. This is not a new question. but one which has caused the good Marburgers to shako ' their heads since many generations. Anil so when the Laiin. a small stream (lowing by Marburg, many years ago changed its . course, cutting aroimil several acres of [ good bottom land, there was much rejoicing on one side of the river, and much laI mentingon theother; for the Lahn by this capricious turn took along with it the boundary line, and the rich acres in question belonged no longer to the Marburg side of the river but to the Weidcnhausen side. Marburg and Wchlenhausen an* now! practically one town and have forgotten how they once stood apart, but the folks of Weidenliausen haven't forgotten their joy; maybe because the land is there to remind them. At any rate they have a big celebration every three years to commemorate the event, arid it was to such a celebration * that the people have been assembling the ' last few days. i The only tiling ofticial about the celebVation is the parade. No .speeches, no delivery of medals, no setting free of prisoners, just-a parade. Proud looking fore-riders in front, youths and maidens following with gay colored, sashes, little girls with garlands and wreaths followed by a similar procession of little boys, looking rather Sunday-go-to-meeting ami still*, but altogether, quite pretty. That was the end or the regular procession, but behind came quite a unique wagon load of young fellows sitting around a table drinking beer ;111(1 eatinir rolls. Iniifhinir anil sinirinir. with dried herring festooned around which swiped tlioir faces as they turned to look out into the crowd. In front was the sign 'Here we come!" and behind the sign "We turn our noses up at the women," which explains that they were a bunch of young bachelors who wanted to advertise the fact. Upon glancing cursorily over them I was led to conclude that their so flat-footed attitude toward the gentle sex was merely a stroke of reciprocity on their parts?a titfor-tat game at which they were having the second go; but you never can tell. That was all the ollicial part of the celebration, but the real celebration was on the circus ground, where there were side shows and a flying or spinning jenny of a very elaborate sort, shooting galleries, a moving picture show and a "wild west." True the wild west sign was written upside down, but that was, like the bark of a rooster, put in to make it hard. How is that for a gala week program? , No peanuts; no popcorn; no high dive; no loop the loop; no chute the chutes; no balloon ascension; no snake-eaters; no half-man and half frog; no coca-cola-true, there was one little insignilicant red lemonade stand, but the frau in charge (that's one good thing about Germany, the woineq do the work) had to name her beverage "beer lemon_ .1~ '? 4-.* Alwi U uue, in uiut-i tu Lilt* lump tu uiinn. it. You may be curious to know what sort ol' people go to such a merry making. They are peasants, philistiues and students. The peasants enjoy themselves thoroughly. They smoke, walk with a cane, drink beer (not beer lemonade) and have a pood time in general. As for the philistiues, they watch the peasants. But a word about what a philistine is. A philistine is any person \^ho employs his time in such sordid and contaminating activities as making money, turning the wheels of industry, driving the wolf awav from the front Kate, and so on, and so forth. The philistine is. as you see, not a freo man. He treads a beateu path, and ho must stay in this path. His life is narrow; he lias no ideals?if ho has ever had any he has forgotten about them in his hurry to catch a train. The valleys are filled with Philistines. There Is nothing in the valley but philistiues. On the mountain on the other hand are the students. Thanks to the much despised philistiues they don't have to worry about the wolf. But if there were no Philistines to uttend to the little affairs, don't think for a moment that the student would worry. I once met an artist, who, not having any one to bring him his meals, was pestered by the inconvenience of having to go get "something to eat once or twice a day. This consumed so much of tiic tiniu t tisit lu> fm:ill v colvpii thn by getting a basket full of bread and bringing: it into his studio. ? Here is his syllogism. Hunger must be"satisfied; bread is the most common and efficacious means of satisfying hunger; bread is the thing. And therein lies the difference between the student and the philistiiie, The latter thinks he must eat a certain number of times a day, sleep a certain number of hours, and make himself comfortable in all sorts of ways. The former, the student, doesn't give so much of his valuable attention to the common treadmill affairs; ho is too busy getting his view while he is yet on the mountain top. For you must know that each one of these dwellers of the mountain must descend into the land of the Philistines, must try to spread his ideals, and become, by degrees, a philistine. But the Philistine never forgets his student days, lie always comes back to the celebration that interests him most, dons his student cap, red, blue, yellow, green, as the case may be, and marches, or if he is too feeble to walk, rides in the procession of his society. But enough of these processions. I had intended to write something about the duels, but it is too late. Maybe you would like to he;|r another time. NOT IN THE BILLS Great Excitement at the Moving Picture ShowWe tell tho story as it was told to us. One night last week there was a great commotion among the spectators at the picture show. The cry of "rats" instantly raised the roof. It is needless for a newspaper to state particulars. Those readers of normally developed imagination may see visions of all sorts of voluntary, or involuntary actions on the part of the female portion of the audience. For a time the pictures might have just as well have been suspended, for they attracted no attention whatever. Wojnen wore quickly transforming ample skirts into the e-V treme limit of the hobble skirt, which is, on ordinary circumstances, coming into fashion at leisure. There was never a greater number of pretty feet scon on any occasion, The pandemonium subsided as soon as sumo one cried out "The rat has boon caught." It was soon learned that tho rat had run un the breeches loir of a uuiet looker-on, who was wandering in mild amusement at the excitement around him. He at least was taken completely by surprise. Ho at once caught the rat in the folds of hi* bifurcated garment. Quiet was immediately restored. That rut is dead now, and iio fears need bo entertained of its second coming. Six Things For The Housekeeper To Dg This Month. 1. Buy or make a tireless cooker. You cau't afford to keep house during the summer months without one. I A t-imple cracker bucket well wrapped I in an old blanket with a tight padded [lid will answer remarkably well. 2. Add an oil stove lo the kitchen equipment. It means less wood to cut during the busy mouths of farm | work as well as lightening the labor of the housewife. o. I)o not allow decaying material of any sort to accumulate around the : uourr. ?| Keep receptacles for garbage care' f\ lly covered and the cans cleaned or ; sprinkled with lime or kerosene. ^ o.

The products of the dairy are perhaps the most useful articles included in the human diet. A meal made up of dishes into which no product of the dairy cow enters would not be such as to inspira "the turnpike load to people's hearts I find lies through their mouths, or I mistake mankind." Take away the butter for the bread, the cream fo" the coffee and' the porridge, the shortening in the crust and the biscuits, the milk in the gravy and in puddings, the cream for the dessert and tin; various kinds of cheese which please and satisfy, then take away the cup of milk for the little one and the meal that would l?e left would be neither tempting nor nutritious. The health of our people depends so much upon an adequate supply of pure dairy products that even a swircity is always attended by suffering and death. Butter is sometimes referred to as a luxury but one of the necessities of life, and its" composition is such that nothing can take its place and perform the same functions. It is nature's product compounded' in the material organism and the process; is in accordance with nature's law; a law which can imitate but cannot understand. Man can manufacture fiom various tats and oilS a substitute for butter but it can: not take the place of nature's product because man candot, understand the needs of the human body as nature understands them. The aniuial body is developed best when nourished by fjMnls which have lteen little | ntampuiaicu uy man unu miu-iuumy. Dairy products are, as a rule, consumed 'nearly h-s nature produced them, This is jiartirularly true with milk upon which the growiny body must depend- In the case j of butter only a small percentage1 i?f other products are added tir the tat extracted from the milk. Man only manipulates it in order to put it in convenient shape for use. It can still bo termed a product of ! nature designed as only nature can design i for use as food by the liuman bedy.

Many people who have eczema and have tried repeatedly to be cured without obtaining the desired result will be interested in the following statement by Mrs. Jas. E. Blair, of Boston, Mass. "My daughter has suffered from birth (for twenty years,) from eczema, , and bad tried many so-called cures anji dozens of physicians' prescriptions with little or no relief until J was advised to have her try Bloodtae v' and Bloodine Ointment, and I. am . thankful today to be able to Inform > you that she has been entirely cured ; after using.eix bottles of Bloodine and four boxes of Bloodine Ointment." What Mrs. Blair says is enough to convince the most skeptioal that Bloodine and Bloodine Ointment used together will positively cure any case of eczema. Bloodine costs but flftv cents a bottle, six bottles for two dollars and a half. Bloodiue Liver Pills cure constipation. Mail orders tilled by Bloodine Corporation, Boston, Mass. C. A.
